The year is A.D. 2120 and mankind has reached far beyond the reaches of the Milky Way galaxy, colonizing several planets. One such planet is the Earth-like planet of Gloria, which happened to harness a large amount of gold. This discovery would later be pivotal in the immigration towards Gloria, but due to the expensive cost of reaching Gloria, life on the planet was similar to that of TheWildWest. Gold trading aided the people of Gloria in advancing technology and knowledge to the point that inventors and engineers lived among the immigrants. However, the Glorians weren't the only ones tempted by the abundance of gold on the planet, as a dangerous gang of alien outlaws and space pirates called the Wild Lizards invaded the planet, destroying many towns and capturing survivors. Now, it's up to two pilots to take control of two revolver-shaped fighter planes and drive the Wild Lizards out of the planet.
